In case you missed it... It's been a while, but there are finally three new pages of mods and tips!:
*- Camaro Home Page Tom Henry Chevrolet

Interesting that just replacing the stock cat and restrictive S-Pipe netted an average of +4.5-rwhp and 5.5 lbs/ft tq in mid-range rpms!

Hah, I remember google searching 3800 series 2 and getting this whole documentary. Really cool stuff on there, I especially was amazed how they ported the entire inside of the UIM. Really awesome info.

Funny how they declair everyone is "wrong" based on a test of one set. GM conciders a failure rate of 1 in 200,000 an unacceptable design. There is no doubt in my mind that if you use the right materials a single row chain can be strong enough. Most chains are made from low to mild carbon steel. Just switching the design to a High alloy steel can make it 3 times the strength but a test sample of one means nothing. High speed downshift is what destroys timing chains. Just different driving habbits could blow that chain.
Yeah, the normal autoparts store replacement is more then enough. Kept my fbody nice a cool, never overheated after I got it.
